The Denver Regional Council of Governments last week announced winners of its Way to Go Commuter Awards. Among the recipients of the awards, which are presented to people and organizations that promote transportation alternatives, was Broomfield transportation manager Debra Baskett.

In a news release announcing the awards, DRCOG stated Baskett has been an advocate for the transportation needs of Broomfield residents by serving on numerous study groups and each year travels "with the U.S. 36 Mayors and Commissioners to Washington, D.C., to enhance efforts to obtain funding for critical regional transportation needs, such as the redesign and rebuilding of the intersection of U.S. 36, Wadsworth Parkway and West 120th Avenue connection."

Way to Go award winners were selected by an independent panel of judges.
